This makes dir/target, dir/target-objects, etc. depend on
dir/pre-compile, which ensures all items in the pre-compile pseudo-tier
are built before entering in the directory they are defined in, during
the compile tier. This removes the need for EXTRA_DEPS hacks.

While ideally we'd just move all of them at the top-level, there are
other things that depend on them that wouldn't then get the right
dependencies. One of them is install steps in dist/something, but there
are others, and that's a rather long pole of things requiring many
changes along with chances to break things.
So instead, we go with a simpler and more limited approach, where we
still recurse into directories to run their export tier (to run whatever
else than GeneratedFiles they have), but ensure the GeneratedFiles we
moved at the top-level are built before recursing by making
directory/export depend on them.

They were necessary some time ago, but:
- there is no js/xpconnect/src/export target anymore,
- accessibility/xpcom/export had a dependency on xpcom/xpidl/export for
the ply cache files, but they're not used as of bug 1633156.
- the recursive make backend was adding automatic dependencies on
xpcom/xpidl/export for the ply cache files.

`ply`, [by design](https://github.com/dabeaz/ply/issues/79), does not produce reproducible table files; hence bug 1633156. (Note that this was *always* true, but only became a problem once we switched to Python 3, which has more unpredictable dict iteration order than Python 2.7, at least prior to [3.7](https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.7.html#summary-release-highlights).)
In any other circumstance I would consider submitting a patch to `ply` to fix this, but as of the [in-progress version 4.0 of the library](https://github.com/dabeaz/ply/blob/master/CHANGES), it doesn't even emit this cached data any more, and indeed the [latest version of the code](1fac9fed64/ply) doesn't even call `open()` at all except to do logging or to read the text data to be parsed from `stdin`. So if we were going to pin our future on `ply` and upgrade to later versions of the library in the future, we would have to live in a world where `ply` doesn't generate cached table files for us anyway.
Emitting the cached table files so later build steps can consume them is an "optimization", but it's not clear exactly how much actual value that optimization provides overall. Quoth the `CHANGES` file from that repository:
```
PLY no longer writes cached table files. Honestly, the use of
the cached files made more sense when I was developing PLY on
my 200Mhz PC in 2001. It's not as much as an issue now. For small
to medium sized grammars, PLY should be almost instantaneous.
```
In practice, I have found this to be true; namely, `./mach build pre-export export` takes just about as long on my machine after this patch as it did before, and in a try push I performed, there's no noticeable performance regression from applying this patch. In local testing I also found that generating the LALR tables in calls to `yacc()` takes about 0.01s on my machine generally, and we generate these tables a couple dozen times total over the course of the `export` tier now. This isn't *nothing*, but in my opinion it's also not nearly long enough where it would be a concern given how long `export` already takes.
That `CHANGES` file also stresses that if caching this data is important, we have the option of doing so via `pickle`. If and when we decide that re-enabling this optimization is valuable for us, we should take control of this process and perform the generation in such a way that we can guarantee reproducibility.

Linking Rust code against the updatecommon library is not well supported by our build system, but it should be possible. The changes to updatecommon's moz.build will cause updatecommon.lib to be created, which Rust can link against. The build.rs script tells cargo which shared Windows libraries are needed for linking, and where updatecommon.lib can be found. The change to config/recurse.mk enforces the dependency of the update agent on updatecommon, so that we do not attempt to link the agent before updatecommon has been built.

Bug 1578254 added a dependency on .cargo/config to export, which happens
to work in the python/mozbuild/mozbuild/test/backend/test_build.py test
cases because DEPTH=., and make finds the checked-in file .cargo/config
in topsrcdir because VPATH points there. After removing VPATH in bug
1496746, the test no longer finds the file in topsrcdir, and doesn't
have a rule to build it since that exists in the top-level moz.build
file.

One of the things bug 1567616 did was to change how .cargo/config is
preprocessed, from it happening during configure to it happening during
the build. And to make things happen properly, dependencies were added
on the rust targets to ensure the .cargo/config file is created before
they run.
Unfortunately, that changed the order in which Make would run all the
targets while recursing for the compile tier, when the file doesn't
exist first. So instead of starting the compile tier with rust targets,
it would start with most C++, then do rust... which we know to make
builds slower overall because of the need to wait for those rust builds
to finish which C++ has all been dealt with already, and lacking
parallelism during the rust build.
So we force .cargo/config to be generated during export (which it is not
already because OBJDIR_PP_FILES are currently dealt with during misc).
That makes Make still run the rust targets early during the compile
tier.
And while here, we extend the if block in recurse.mk that excludes all
the top-level recursion dependencies when running from subdirectories.

Make the target and host targets depend on those, and flatten the

That is, instead of chains like:
browser/app/target: mozglue/build/target
mozglue/build/target: memory/build/target
we now have:
browser/app/target: browser/app/target-objects \
mozglue/build/target-objects \
memory/build/target-objects
Which means Make can feel free to build the object files in browser/app

When a directory, like toolkit/library, builds both a static and a
shared library, and another, like toolkit/library/gtest, depends on the
static part, it currently needs to wait for the shared library to be
finished building, preventing both libraries being built in parallel.
By separating shared libraries to a different target, we allow more
parallelism to the build.
